    Seeking Relationship Advise

    I used to have a girlfriend but she passed. Since then, I've found it difficult to settle in any relationship...always feeling it will end tragically. What worries me most is the fact that I lost my girl in 2011 (7 years ago) yet I still can't settle down with anyone. I've reached a level where...

    Learning French

    I started using the app a few days ago to learn French. Though time constraint has seen me unable to meet my daily study goals, I can say I'm making progress...I now know what a cat, a boy, and a man are in French :). I must admit, I'm still dealing with the most basic, but I feel reenergized...

    Learning other languages

    It's a good thing you brought this up. I'm not a native English speaker (though English is the official language in my country) and would want to know online communities where I can have conversations with native speakers.

    Think And Grow Rich

    I always take books about money with a pinch of salt for most are more or less fictitious (tips that hardly work in real life). That's not how Napoleon's book turned out to be, however. The real-life illustrations make the book realistic; exactly what one needs for self-improvement. This stuck...

    New Entrepreneurship & Marketing

    JBee, it's good to hear you are interested in doing business online. The internet is a market like no other in that it has ready clients. But your would be clients must, first of all, know you exist. So, allow me to be blunt; you will have to spend some money to reach your prospective clients...

    Learning how to better myself

    I'm a freelance writer. As such, self-motivation and discipline are key to my success. But it doesn't stop there, learning never ends for me. So, while I learned about the forum via a job posting on Upwork, I'm here to immerse myself in the pool of knowledge that the forum has turned out to be...

    In another life, I would become...

    A tricky question this one is for I would want to be many things, given another go at life. Of all the things I'd want to be, nothing beats my admiration for the men and women in uniform. I've never stopped admiring military men and women. From discipline to the organization, men and women in...
